Not every tumour requires open surgery. At Picture This, cryoablation therapy offers patients a minimally invasive, image-guided alternative for destroying tumours using precisely controlled freezing temperatures. Performed by Dr. Bhavin Jankharia — with over 25 years of interventional radiology experience — the procedure uses the Prosense Cryoablation System from Israel alongside the Siemens Definition CT Scanner with TwinBeam for real-time ice-ball visualisation. Unlike radiofrequency ablation, cryoablation lets our radiologists monitor the exact ablation zone on CT, USG, or MRI, ensuring no guesswork. Suitable for bone tumours including osteoid osteoma and chondroblastoma, kidney tumours, liver metastases, lung lesions, and soft-tissue masses, this percutaneous tumour ablation procedure is done as a day-care outpatient procedure, mostly under local anaesthesia. A mandatory pre-assessment of your recent scans is required before booking. Picture This provides thorough pre-procedure counselling and post-procedure guidance.
